The resolution ' was swimming nlonjf like an airship in a clear sky until the paragraph was reached which empowered the committee to spend money from the state treasury for its expenses and clerk hire. It was Senator Joseph of Multnomah who saw, or thought he saw a junketing trip fur I bill and other mem bers who would be appointed, at the state's"cxpeiisc,' and .Joseph landed on the" plan With all four feet, lie twisted! it and ;biiUd:;R'.lo:.aid fro;. urging this ses.sioji..iiotti.Ktiirt with the-first measure as a joy measure for some members.
